Harahan Colony Between Floors

This will likely never happen again. Most of my cuts to the floor section the colony was located in were already made because there was a hive in this spot previously. I found the queen within the first ten minutes of the cut out. That usually happens wayyyy later. So two gifts. I'll take 'em!

Had you done this cut out before?

Good job, glad you didn't step on queeny!!

You know Schawee is going to accuse you of just letting a queen you brought with you loose on the floor :)

That's the one you told me about?...Sweet!  That queen just looked plain lonely to me.

Nice video JP. Thanks for sharing.
I'll have to keep an eye on the floor, on inside jobs from now on.
